cleveland hulls

Have been tinkering with the idea of upgrading the tinny to something with forward controls and screen. This has basically lead to looking at runabouts in the 4.75m + range. A few brands have popped up which i have heard of but i cant find too much information about them on the net, eg Cleveland, From what i gather they are made in QLD? anyone have exerience with these hulls?

Currently have a quintrex and has been awesome but just keeping the options open.

hi silly,

i have one of these boats and i'm inpressed with it. they are a simple boat with a reasonable ride and good deck space. they are very similiar to the trailcraft freestyle, in fact wouldn't be surprised if that is who bought the design, but not sure. they do bang though however i take mine out of the south coast where the weather can turn nasty quick and it still does an impressive job. they are easy to have as a one man operation and i will happily use this boat for a few years to come before up grading. I can take you out on it or if you want to come and have a look at it i am in shelley. just PM me and i will happily show you its pros and cons.

Cheers Rick
